Depends on what stage the truck is in now to be able to say what you would buy with $400. Im like 69rangerf100, $400 is just a drop in the bucket. Got to the point now where im looking to see where i can save $400 LOL

tires and brakes been a few years an i beleive my front wheel cylinders leak bad as well as the soft lines may be collapsed/collapsing. and possably i need all new drums. so since i have no good idea how the front drums seperate from the hubs or if they even do and aren't one solid peice a shop would have to change the fronts out for me.

I just sold my race car and have $3000 to spend on the truck. Right now it's down to the bare frame and I'm researching everything closely as I know that I will run out of money before I run out of things to get for the truck. The 3k will likely get it on the road again, but sure as heck won't get me everything I'd like to do to it. If i had an extra 400 bucks I guess I'd have to say I'd buy a set of ausy cleveland heads for my 400. Then I'd need another 500 or so for machine work and valvees. See what I mean? Spending money on these things just leads to spending more money on them.

I'd either buy a new dash pad for the '72 or buy a whole other truck for $400.
